City of Portage la Prairie
Yard Waste Collection Program
The spring
season is once again upon us and the City of Portage is
offering free curbside yard waste collection. The
program is starting early this year, beginning Monday,
April 16, 2012 and running for 4 collection cycles.
Yard waste is to be placed at the curb on your regular
collection day no later than 7:00 a.m. There is no
limitation on the number of bags that can be placed out
for collection, but a weight restriction of 18 kgs or 40
pounds per bag will apply. Yard waste must be placed in
clear refuse bags which are available at various retail
outlets. Colored bags will not be collected.
Yard waste is defined as leaves, grass and garden waste,
excluding any tree trimmings. Tree trimmings must
always be bundled in four foot sections and have a waste
collection tag affixed.
